Job 31:34 in Context — Job 31

32 O estrangeiro não passava a noite na rua; eu abria minhas portas ao viajante.

33 Se encobri minhas transgressões como as pessoas [fazem] , escondendo meu delito em meu seio;

34 Porque eu tinha medo da grande multidão, e o desprezo das famílias me atemorizou; então me calei, e não saí da porta:

35 Quem me dera se alguém me ouvisse! Eis que minha vontade é que o Todo-Poderoso me responda, e meu adversário escrevesse um relato da acusação.

36 Certamente eu o carregaria sobre meu ombro, e o poria em mim como uma coroa.
